Dear Geographers, If you have an interest in spatial population data please keep in mind that NASA has the socioeconomic data and applications center (SEDAC) that is hosted by CIESN (Center for International Science Information Network, http://www.ciesin.org/) at the Earth Institute, Colombia University. There are 45 population datasets, 22 remote sensing (really GIS derived) datasets and a total of 173 datasets under 16 themes such as Urban, Water, and Sustainability. Check it out.
